Historical Perspective
Steato means relating to fatty matter or tissue and rrhea means discharge; flow. So the word means flow of fatty matter. Malabsorption is a condition which is associated with impaired absorption of one or all dietary nutrients. There are multiple etiologies with diminished intestinal absorption. Many of them present with diarrhea, especially steatorrhea. Some of the main causes of steatorrhea are celiac disease, cystic fibrosis, pancreatic insufficiency, small inetestinal beacteraial overgrowth syndrome. The history of celiac disease dates back to late 1800's when an english scientist described celiac disease.
Historical perspective and Land marks
- In October 1887, Samuel Gee, an English leading authority in pediatrics, gained the full credit of explanation of celiac disease, presenting a lecture named "celiac affection" to medical students; which was published next year. Gee mentioned that "If the patient can be cured at all, it must be by means of diet".[9] He also added that "the allowance of farinaceous food must be small".[10] He also found gluten-free diet relieved symptoms, which relapsed when gluten
- In 1950, Wim Dicke, a Dutch pediatrician, suggested in his doctoral thesis that elimination of wheat, rye, and oats from diet would result in reasonable cure of celiac disease. He found the pathological factor to be gluten.[1]
- At the same time, Wim Dicke's colleagues, Weijers and Van de Kamer, presented a way to diagnose celiac disease by using stool fat measurement.[2]
- In late 1960's case of idiopathic steatoeehea and reticulosis of the small bowel as a late complication was reported.[3]
